Pretty easy gen ed. There are weekly assignments which are basically just completion. They take 20 minutes max, just read the article and respond to the prompt. Never more than a few sentences. You have to do 3 playlist assignments were basically you just find a song related to the weeks topic and doing a short write up about how it relates. Then there is the concert report. Once again very chill and easy; you just have to write about a concert you attended. Participation is the only kind of annoying thing in this class. You have to go to all of the lectures (2x a week) and discussion (1x a week) to get the participation points. You can lose a few points here and there and be fine, but if you want an A expect to attend most if not all of the lectures and discussions. The final exam was also very easy. There were roughly 15 music samples where you had to identify the artist which he released to us before hand, so it was like 20 minutes of preparation. There was also an essay which again he released the prompt before hand, you just had to write it out during the exam period. This took like 30 minutes to prepare before the exam. Overall I would recommend this for an easy DSHU and DVUP gen ed. |

I really liked this class. You can tell Professor Kibbee is very knowledgeable and passionate about music. Class has a lot of extra credit opportunities and class is mostly participation based. There are qr codes he uploads during class its easy to fill out but u cant really skip if u want high grade in class. There’s a final exam but it is very easy just got to remember songs and associate it with artist and quote. Then u have to write essay which is easy u can write basically anything related to the class content so u can pre determine your essay. But overall easy class take it for easy gen ed |

Easy class and pretty interesting even for someone who doesn't play an instrument or sing. Participation makes up a big portion of your grade– there are QR codes throughout the lecture. The syllabus and gradebook are unclear about the number of lectures you can miss before your grade drops to a B. There are 2 quizzes and 2 group presentations (super lowkey) during discussion. There's 1 paper and a few short assignments here and there. The prof and TAs don't answer their emails either. |
